<br /> OF THE CITY OF SOUTH BEND, INDIANA,
<br /> FORMALLY DESIGNATING THE NATIONAL
<br /> MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS (NIMS) AS THE
<br /> BASIS FOR ALL INCIDENT MANAGEMENT IN
<br /> THE CITY OF SOUTH BEND, INDIANA
<br />Whereas, the Common Council of the City of South Bend, Indiana, recognizes
<br />that the Homeland Security President Director (HSPD)-5, directed the Secretary of the
<br />Department of Homeland Security to develop and administer a National Incident
<br />Management System which would provide a consistent nationwide approach for federal,
<br />state and local governments to work more effectively and efficiently to prepare for,
<br />prevent, respond to, and recover from domestic incidents, regardless of cause, size or
<br />complexity; and
<br />Whereas, the Common Council further recognizes that the collective input and
<br />guidance from all federal, state, and local homeland security partners has been, and will
<br />continue to be vital to the effective implementation and utilization of a comprehensive
<br />national incident management system (NIMS); and
<br />Whereas, it is necessary and desirable that all federal, state and local emergency
<br />agencies and personnel coordinate their efforts to effectively and efficiently provide the
<br />highest level of incident management; and
<br />Whereas, to facilitate the most efficient and effective incident management it is
<br />critical that federal, state and local organizations utilize standardized terminology,
<br />standardized organizational structures, interoperable communications, consolidated
<br />action plans, unified command structures, uniform personnel qualifications standards,
<br />uniform standards for planning, training, and exercising, comprehensive resource
<br />management, and designated incident facilities during emergencies or disasters; and
<br />Whereas, the NIMS standardized procedures for managing personnel,
<br />communications, facilities and resources will improve the city’s ability to utilize federal
<br />funding, to enhance local agency readiness, to maintain first responder safety and will
<br />help streamline incident management processes;
